Acrolein → 6-Hydroxychromene-3-carboxaldehyde

참여 물질

반응 단계

The starting material is prepared as follows: 2,5-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde (25.0 g, 0.18 mol) is dissolved in 375 ml of 1,4-dioxane. To this is sequentially added potassium carbonate (50.0 g, 0.36 mol) and acrolein (15.22 g, 0.27 mol). The mixture is heated at reflux overnight, cooled, and partitioned between water and ether. The aqueous layer is removed and extracted twice with ether. The combined organic layers are dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. Trituration of the residue with dichloromethane, followed by filtration and drying, yields 6-hydroxy-2H-1-benzopyran-3-carboxaldehyde, m.p. 163°-165° C., as a yellow crystalline solid.
